Solis Responds to SCOTUS Ruling Allowing Warrantless Raids Based on Racial Profiling

LOS ANGELES, Calif. (September 8 2025)— Los Angeles County Chair Pro Tem and First District Supervisor Hilda L. Solis issued the following statement today in response to the Supreme Court’s ruling to stay the Temporary Restraining Order that blocked federal agents from conducting warrantless raids and discriminating against residents based on the color of their skin, accent, language spoken, and place of work:

“Today’s Supreme Court ruling allowing ‘roving immigration patrols’ in Los Angeles County and the surrounding Southern California region, permitting stops based solely on occupation, language, or appearance, is an unacceptable attack on the rights and safety of our residents. The timing of this ruling is especially outrageous, coming at the very start of Hispanic Heritage Month, a time meant to honor and uplift Latino communities and their contributions. 

This decision will only intensify the fear, trauma, and disruption faced by Angeleno families and neighbors who contribute so much to the strength, workforce, and cultural diversity of Los Angeles County. Racial profiling and stops without reasonable suspicion have no place in our society. ICE raids have torn apart families and inflicted real harm on innocent people, including U.S. citizens, breaking down public trust in government and undermining the values we hold dear.

Los Angeles County stands firm in our commitment to protect the rights, dignity, and wellbeing of all residents, regardless of immigration status. We will continue fighting tirelessly through every legal avenue and community effort to defend our communities.”
